Have Your Say: New Nature Recovery Map Now Open for Consultation

The draft Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) has been published and the consultation focuses on two key resources:

A strategy document outlining county-wide priorities for nature recovery.

An interactive map showing where nature is thriving and where targeted action could deliver the greatest benefits for wildlife, water, soil and climate resilience.

The LNRS identifies key opportunities for supporting nature across the region — and could influence  future environmental funding and land management decisions. This is your chance to see what is being suggested and help shape the final strategy.

Residents, landowners, community groups, environmental organisations, town & parish councils and businesses across Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin are all encouraged to review the new interactive map and strategy and share their views as part of the consultation to help make the strategy as good as possible.

We hope the strategy and map inspires action and collaboration to help nature thrive. 

Consultation closes: 15 October 2025
